Nice to see the aero elements from the factory Ducati at two stages in a turn. And check out hom thin their mid-section of the chassis is to allow for sideway flex.

Doodeman disks. Available in 4.0, 4.5 and 5.0mm to suit the braking intensity of the circuit

After upsweeping lower end of fairings, double spoons, and swingarm mounted side deflectors, is KTM taking the concept of creating downforce to the next level by adding a full “scoop”?
It looks they are trying to get downforce from the rear wheel area by tucking in the rear end of the lower fairing and creating a “ring shaped” air guidance to funnel the air between the swingarm and the tire and pushing it upwards. Is this the motorcycle equivalent of a diffuser?

Love to see how far KTM goes with their new bikes. Optimising the wall thickness of the top and bottom triple clamps to make a consistent pressure on the fork tubes. How clever! (Foto credit Transmoto)

Who can help me to identity what bike this output shaft is from? Seems in good shape, but have no clue any more where it came from.

J-dampers and adjustable anti-roll for Formula Student car. J-dampers is an area still not used for racing bikes enough, in my humble opinion. The spring “sees” position of suspension, the damper “sees” speed of movement (first order of position). The J-damper or inertia damper (flywheel) “sees” changes of speed of suspensions (second order of position). Not to be confused with tuned mass damper.

Bike manufacturer "Propain" linkage system. Would be nice for a Motorbike. Compact, brace connects high to the frame, so forces are led into the frame high-up, allowing low lateral stiffness, constant anti-squat over the travel, nice wheel path. when does Ducati build a moving pivot point construction? Surely with the shapeshifter the travel range of the rear wheel becomes larger and a good anti-squat control becomes more and more important.

Older Ducati Moto-GP variable length intake trumpets. NOT two-stage intake trumpets like streetbikes. I am surprised this technology never made to to streetbikes.
